10 Years Today



10 Years ago today I married the greatest man I have ever known in the Mt Timp temple. It was one of the funnest day I can recall (despite the three shades of green Grant was before we entered the celestial room together.) A description of that day will be saved for another time. It has been a wild ride the last ten years, and often the first part of it seems and feels like another life. Both lives have been good, just so different. We have had some great accomplishments and adventures in the last ten years:
Jamison
Caleb
Asher
Miquelyn
Isaac
A Bachelors in finance
A Masters in Social Work
Moving into and out of 8 different houses
Establishing a career
Not working for money for the first time in 20 years
Travels to a few different countries
Many nights staying home
Said goodbye to too many good friends
Made great new friends along the way
so many memories it is difficult to list.
It has been a wild ride. We have had experiences that have tested our faith in the Lord and in each other. Though we have felt heartbreak and shed many tears, the good moments are the ones that come to mind first. All things combined have helped us become the couple that we are and made us so much stronger. We are better as a result of all our experiences. I would not want to have shared them with anyone else. I love this man more than myself or anyone else. Thank you Grant for making my life the best ever and choosing to be with me for ever and ever...and ever!
